Finchampstead is one of those hidden gems in Berkshire—a leafy, peaceful village with just enough going on to keep it interesting, but never too busy to spoil the calm. Tucked between Wokingham and Fleet, it's full of countryside charm, winding lanes and woodland walks. It's the sort of place people come to for space, fresh air, and a real sense of community. The village stretches across quite a wide area, with pockets like California Crossroads and The Ridges giving it a scattered but connected feel. You'll find a good mix of old cottages, family homes, and long-standing locals who know every footpath by heart.

The village's history runs deep, with roots in Saxon times and ties to the Royal Forest of Windsor. It was once part of a large hunting estate and still carries that forested, rural feel. St James' Church, perched high on the hill, dates back to the 12th century and is a proper local landmark. Over the years, Finchampstead has grown gradually, without losing its rural edge. Today, the population of the village is about 600, while the population of the wider parish is around 6,500, and while it's popular with commuters, it still holds tight to its village identity. It's a place where the pace is slower, but the connections—both personal and practical—are strong.

There's a lot to enjoy locally if you like the outdoors. The Ridges, managed by the National Trust, offers fantastic walks through pine and beech woodland, with sweeping views over the countryside. California Country Park is another highlight, with a lake, café, play areas and walking routes that draw families and dog walkers year-round. There are a few good pubs, like The Greyhound and Queen's Oak, and several well-loved farm shops and garden centres nearby. If you want to explore further, nearby sites like Basildon Park, Greys Court and Stratfield Saye House offer a mix of gardens, heritage, and peaceful grounds perfect for a day out.

Wider Berkshire offers plenty of variety. Windsor is always worth a trip for the castle, the Long Walk, and a boat ride on the Thames. Newbury and Reading each bring their own flavour—one historic and markety, the other modern and buzzy. The North Wessex Downs spill over the west of the county, offering proper countryside rambling. You've also got Wellington Country Park close by, a family favourite with animals, trails and outdoor play. Whether you're after riverside strolls, race days, stately homes or a hidden pub lunch, there's plenty to fill your weekends without straying too far.

Getting to Finchampstead is easier than it looks on a map. While it doesn't have its own train station, nearby stations at Wokingham and Crowthorne provide direct links to Reading, Guildford and London Waterloo. By road, the M4 and M3 are both within easy reach, and the A329(M) links you quickly to Reading or Bracknell. Heathrow is your nearest airport, about 40 minutes by car, with Gatwick not too much further. Local buses do run through the area, though most people tend to rely on the car here. It's one of those places where you don't feel cut off, but it does help to know the back roads.

Berkshire is the kind of county that quietly gets on with being brilliant. It's got royal connections, thriving towns, and more green space than most people realise. There's plenty of history—castles, abbey ruins, old inns—and yet it still feels current, thanks to strong schools, a decent food scene and well-kept countryside. It caters for commuters, families, retirees and everyone in between, all without trying too hard. Whether you're in the bustle of Reading or the calm of villages like Finchampstead, there's a strong sense of balance running through it.
